the problem here is that if networkmanager is already running and hasnt
found a resolvconf managed resolv.conf (or resolvconf isnt installed)
and you then install resolvconf package, networkmanager will not notice
that on shutdown and just think it should wipe the resolv.conf file.
so stopping NM before installing (or dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf to fix
this post-mortem) does the trick. So the bug is that NM doesn't
reconsider his idea to not-use resolvconf on shutdown. I will check if
we can do this better.

** Summary changed:
- kubuntu 8.10 - Network Manager 0.7 - DHCP/resolvconf Problem
+ Network Manager 0.7 doesn't use resolvconf on shutdown if it didn't use it on
startup - this causes /etc/resolv.conf link to be wiped on shutdown
** Summary changed:
- Network Manager 0.7 doesn't use resolvconf on shutdown if it didn't use it on
startup - this causes /etc/resolv.conf link to be wiped on shutdown
+ Network Manager 0.7 doesn't use resolvconf to remove nameserver info if it
didn't use it to add that information - this causes /etc/resolv.conf link to be
wiped on shutdown and makes migrating a running system to resolvconf tricky
